Human Approval Gates
A manual pause in an automated flow that waits for a human to approve, decline, or let a timeout/fallback run.
"I need automated workflows to stop and wait for a person — but not forever, and with reminders and a fallback if nobody responds."
A human approval gate is code that pauses a process, sends an approval request to a person, retries or reminds them, and proceeds with an alternate path if nobody responds within a deadline.
